The U.S. Senate on Sept. 14 passed a resolution by California Democratic Sens. Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein honoring fire Capt. Tedmund D. Hall and Firefighter Specialist Arnaldo

Quinones who lost their lives in the line of duty fighting the Station Fire.

Boxer said: "My heart goes out to the family and friends of Captain Hall and Specialist Quinones, who gave their lives to protect our communities threatened by the Station Fire. I know their loved ones are devastated by this loss, but I hope they are comforted in some small way by knowing that they died as heroes and we will not forget their sacrifice."

Feinstein said: "Captain Tedmund Hall and firefighter Arnaldo Quinones are true heroes. They gave their lives protecting the lives and the property of others, and we will never forget.
